    I see that TiVo Edge for Antenna is discontinued (even the 2 tuner now), are they going to make another OTA DVR or is TiVo done?

    Bally Sports RSNs Are Reportedly Preparing For Bankruptcy

    Funny, Spectrum is doing the opposite here. I was able to choose my local RSN as part of the lowest tier, Total Choice pick 15.

    Do you wear glasses or contacts or don't you?

    None right now. I have been waiting 14 months for them to do my cataract surgery. 2 weeks to go, yay. Why does it take so long for any medical procedure these days. I mean, really, 14 months from diagnosis to surgery?

    Which is better, wireless charging or wired?

    One thing the article misses is reliability. Constant use of usb or lightning will eventually cause the port to fail. I have lost equipment over that issue. Since wireless avoids a mechanical connection it is more reliable by design

    Tivo Edge Over the Air DVR Sale - $100 Off!

    I've had TIVOs for a decade. The only time I ever needed a third tuner was when I had a TIVO MINI connected. The mini would steal a tuner

    Notice: Upcoming Style Change

    I mostly like it. My big issue is that it isn't respecting default font size in preferences. My old eyes and small tablet say nope

    A well-rounded embedded engineer? Discussion of Engineering and Software areas of study

    I have been trying to wrap my head around a response for several hours without success. The p r oblem is that the picture you paint is very broad. I see areas you mention as essential where an engineer in a subfield wouldn't need to know or care. At the same time I see a few holes that any...
